miracle on candice st

Psalm 27:10  When my Mother and Father forsake me,  then the Lord will take care of me.
I have this friend who has a heart of compassion for children.
She often feeds all the neighborhood kids,  sometimes when her family barely has enough
for themselves.
She will often take in children and take care of them,  even though like I said,  she really doesn't
even have enough for her own family. 

So,  she has taken in a little baby, who is about one year of age.  She has been struggling to provide for her.  I have been helping her on and off with needs for the child, as I know the child has no one to care for it but my friend.  My friend called and needed some diapers and wipes for the baby.  She was coming to visit me later that day. 
I hung up the phone and knew that I couldn't provide much for her.  I prayed and asked the Lord what I should do.  In His still small voice,  He said to me,  I will provide....so I put it in God's hands and forgot about it. 

Later that day,  I had a friend stop by.  She had a new car that she wanted to show off to me.
  I said, "Shall we go for a cruise?"  and she said  "Sure."
As I got in, I moved a package from the passenger seat and my friend mumbled something about keeping diapers and things on hand for when she transports new mothers in the line of her work.  My eyes got kind of big and I asked her, before I could think to restrain myself,
"What size of diapers are they?"
"Size 4,  why?"  she asked me.
And then I explained about my friend needing the diapers.  She said,  "Go ahead, take them." 
....So this is how my God provided.
He always does, you know.
